    I think you are right about that too.

    : You are partly right. The last time Queen
    : Silvia wore the Baden fringe Tiara was
    : indeed on 9 October 2001, with a green
    : dress, but it was in Moscow, during a State
    : banquet hosted by President Vladimir Putin
    : at the Kremlin Palace:
    :
    :
    :
    : Queen Silvia has worn this tiara quite
    : rarely, in comparison with the other tiaras
    : in the Bernadotte collection (with the
    : exception of the button tiaras, that she has
    : hardly never worn). Here are the seldom
    : events I have recorded in my files:
    :
    : 5 February 1977: Amaranther Order Ball in
    : Malmö
    :
    :
    :
    : 1988: State Visit to Canada
    :
    :
    :
    : 1991: State Visit to Pope Saint John Paul II
    : at the Vatican

    : Hello Josefine,
    :
    : Thank you for this wonderful array of
    : pictures.
    :
    : I think you are right. The last public
    : appearance of the Baden Fringe tiara on
    : Crown Princess Victoria’s head, that I have
    : recorded in my files, is the Nobel gala
    : banquet at Stockholm’s Royal Palace on 11
    : December 2011. The then heavily pregnant
    : Crown Princess matched the tiara with the
    : big diamond ear hangers that she had worn
    : for the first time for her pre-wedding
    : reception.
    :
    :
    :
    : The tiara was later worn by Princess
    : Margaretha, Fru Ambler, on 8 June 2013 for
    : Princess Madeleine and Christopher O’Neill’s
    : wedding. As far as I know, this is the last
    : appearance of this tiara up to now.
    :
    :
    :
    : Strange that Crown Princess Victoria has not
    : worn this tiara for the last three years,
    : whereas it seemed to be one of her firm
    : favourites.
    :
    : Do we know if this tiara is part of the
    : Bernadotte Foundation, or is it the King’s
    : (or the Queen’s or the Crown Princess’)
    : private property?
    :
    : Queen Victoria of Sweden (1862-1930, wife of
    : King Gustav V) has used this tiara in a very
    : versatile way, mostly as a tiara, but also
    : as a necklace or as a corsage ornament. I
    : would be glad if Queen Silvia would give a
    : try and wear it as a necklace. I think it
    : would make a very nice match with Queen
    : Sofia’s Nine-Prong Diamond Tiara. A
    : suggestion for the next Nobel ceremony...
